Now... What will Luigi Mangione say for his defence?

1. He is not the shooter and has nothing to do with that assassination.

2. He is the shooter, deemed the CEO responsible for "denials of claims" that led many to get sicker, die or face serious financial problems, and he chose to assassinate him as punishment and as a warning to other CEOs, the healthcare industry, etc. He therefore sees that act of planned, cold-blooded murder as "self-defence" of sorts 'cause he was defending the interests and very lives of the American people. He gave himself moral authority to bypass the law and commit "vigilante justice."

3. He was insane at the time of events and could not tell right from wrong.


If he argues the first point and it is proven beyond a reasonable doubt that he is indeed the shooter, it'll make him uncredible to the jury, and it'll show lack of remorse.

If he argues the second point, he'll be convicted unless one or more juror agree with such an act of vigilante murder, with his reasoning, and I'm sure the prosecution will do its darndest to eliminate all such outrageously biased jurors. I'm also certain the prosecution will do damnedest to humanize the victim, Mr. Brian Thompson, demonstrate that he was not so responsible for all the denials of claims, that his decision-making power was limited, and that he was actually working on cutting out-of-pocket costs, among other things.

If he argues the third point, it'll be an uphill battle for him and his defence team, esp. if he shows no actual remorse, did not have a history of serious depression or mental illness, and all the premeditation will not help.

In all cases, the prosecution will likely emphasize the impact the murder has had on the victim's friends and family.
I still think the killer is out there tbh. And no I'm not talking with my crush for him. Some things don't line up. Especially the demeanor and face profile in the cctv camera. As LQ as it is, a whole chunk of unibrow shouldn't be missing

Will be interesting to see which general defense strategy they go with. I thought it was premature for Luigi’s lawyer to say the below… granted, this was before she took him on as her client.

Also, the fact that Luigi’s trial might not be for another 1-2 years is 😐 so long to wait…

All I said is I’m waiting for the legal proceedings to play out . We know he’s plead not guilty and we have a very confident prosecutor and that’s all we know so far . Everything else is just a media , Reddit, twitter, lpsg circus! And of course, the pictures of Luigi have been fun to look at!!!!
Honey, a very confident prosecutor is just a prosecutor who's doing their job, especially when their side was trying to act as the morality police. Everything that we have today is just enough for everyone to make a justified assumption. If y'all don't have any new other evidence other than the CCTV videos or anything that could make us changed our sides or perspective, just stop.
 
U need to watch more “see no evil” series on Investigation Discovery channel.
See No Evil
See No Evil Television show - Google Search
I actually had read the book and changed my view so quickly about the whole thing after I attended a security trade show in Asia. The thing about those shows was they only showed you what would be considered legal depending on which countries you were watching it.

The term assassination by legal standard is relative to the political power a person holds. He was a CEO not a public servant. Let’s drop that rhetoric.

Tbh people shouldn't be worried about his defense. His lawyer has proofed herself as a badass during his arraignment. We should try to question about the jury selection instead. Everything would begin at that moment. I hope that the defense would have a very competent team that could investigate every single detail as the trial goes because this trial might become the most expensive and resource exhausting trial that had been ever existed in history. We are talking the people vs the healthcare industry

Not necessarily. The charge was elevated from murder 2 to murder 1 due to terrorism.

In a statement, a spokesperson for New York Mayor Eric Adams, Kayla Mamelak Altus, said: "The cold-blooded assassination of Brian Thompson - a father of two - and the terror it infused on the streets of New York City for days has since been sickeningly glorified, shining a spotlight on the darkest corners of the internet."

Luigi Mangione pleads not guilty to murder and terror charges over healthcare CEO's killing

That act of murder appears to be seen as an act of assassination by the powers that be.
